A unique source of public information on Tasmanians at the time, covering name, title, sex, place of living, occupation, roll number, subdivision and division. Enrolment was compulsory in 1916, so men and women from all walks of life are included.

This CD continues the high quality productions from QFHS indexers, adding to the previously released QFHS Electoral Rolls series which have proved invaluable to family and other historical researchers.

This CD features ...

• Coverage of all 135,452 electors in the 1916 rolls at the National Archives of Australia, including supplemental rolls (19,340 electors) and removed names (9,326 electors)
• Searching on name and other details with QFHSdatasearch - especially useful for finding family groups, e.g. by specifying a surname and sorting on place of living within subdivision
• Links from search results to maps of division boundaries

QFHSdatasearch is a generic interface designed to search genealogy databases and developed by the Queensland Family History Society Inc. This version features field oriented and keyword searches, Boolean selection, sorting, wildcard searches and, when applicable, links between search results and images held in pdf files of the source records.
